firemedic Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Here's one. How do you guys think Losman would have done with AVP? I know it's a moot point but I was curious after thinking about it. In no way am I displeased with what we've got now, it's great, we're 6th ranked offensively! Go Bills
Hazed and Amuzed Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 JP's problem was JP not the OC. Sure with better coaching he may have been a better QB but he was too reckless when the game was on the line. JP held on to the ball too long, that was his biggest problem...
Ennjay Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 When JP got here we read and heard countless stories about his endless intense workouts/skull sessions with Sam Wyche. Now we have to wonder why it was necessary. Except we don't really wonder. I don't think AVP would've made much difference.

In no way am I displeased with what we've got now, it's great, we're 6th ranked offensively! Go Bills Bills Offense: Rush (6th); Pass (20th); overall (14th) Bills Defense: Rush (9th); Pass (31st); overall (28th)
sharper802 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 The bottom line is you just don't know... The O-line sucked The OC was awful be it Mularkey, his guy from Pittsburgh that left for ND, Fairchild, or Schonert. The most damning fact is that not one NFL team brought him in for a look to be their 3rd string, white, hold the clipboard QB.
Bills Fan888 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 268-429 CMP-ATT 3,051 YDS 62.5 CMP % 7.11 Yards Per Throw 19 TD's 14 Ints 84.9 Passer Rating (11th in NFL) Those are not bad stats at all considering he had a terrible coaching staff.
MavBavButav Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 I BET ROB JOHNSON COULD FINALLY SUCCEED WITH AVP AS THE OC!
Guest dog14787 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Its still probably to early to get to carried away about AVP(even though I am) but JP Losman with a decent OC grooming him would still be a starting QB in the NFL in my opinion. JP Probably had the strongest arm in the NFL, intelligent, great work ethic, good character, good accuracy, good mobility, and an awesome long ball that T.O. would have loved. It urks me to see JP out of the league, it really does.
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 He'd probably be a pro bowler, one of the greatest QBs ever, and first ballot HOFer. Losman was completely ruined by two different coaching staffs. The fact that 2 different staffs benched him and the backup QBs out produced each time is more proof of biased & racist coaches.
5 Wide Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 I bet if he had AVP, he probably would have had no pocket presence, held onto the ball too long, and generally looked like a deer in the headlights. I'm not sure he would have quoted Yoda though.

It urks me to see JP out of the league, it really does. Hmmm. JP was intelligent and had good accuracy? Not many people would agree about his intelligence--football or otherwise. I think he scored an awesome 14 on his Wonderlick before retaking later on? Remember that an average person would score around a 21. 50= highest possible score, superior intelligence 21= average intelligence 14= equivalent to unskilled worker Below 14= moron Also, JP's career completion percentage is only 59.3% and his TD to INT ratio is below 1.0 as per NFL.com. Those are hardly the numbers of an accurate QB.

The Guy Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 JP doesn't have the aptitude to run a no huddle.
/dev/null Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 People are still hung up on that 1st round bust with no pocket presence? That makes me sad
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Mike Mularkey with a real quarterback in Atlanta looks like an offensive genius. Mike Mularkey with JP Losman cost him a coaching job. JP would still be out of the nfl cause JP was a bust. It's time to move on now.

firemedic Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 Good points everyone, thanks. Maybe we were 6th in points scored?
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Other than for the fact he quit, that might have been true. true he did quit. I'm just perplexed there's still JP threads when he's no longer in the NFL. When it really has little to do with how he was/wasn't coached and more to do with the guy was just a ****ty quarterback
Guest dog14787 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 true he did quit. I'm just perplexed there's still JP threads when he's no longer in the NFL. When it really has little to do with how he was/wasn't coached and more to do with the guy was just a ****ty quarterback There was a period of time in Losman's career when the Losman to Evans connection was really heating up and if you added T.O. to the mix, JP Losman could have had some huge games so I respectfully disagree. I watched Trent Edwards regress last season and although I have no doubt the concussion he suffered was partly to blame, our OC did very little in the way of understanding the QB's frame of mind and adjusting to it with the same type of plays we are running successfully now to help our young O-line. You have it or you don't and AVP seems to have it, at least so far he does, Turk Shonert on the other hand, not so much... I really like this AVP...
Bills Fan888 Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 JP doesn't have the aptitude to run a no huddle. JP did great when they ran the no huddle. I was always confused as to why they didn't run it more.
